THE NBA Playoffs Updates: The Houston Rockets. WTH.. Really Houston. In Jan I way in Wayne's Barbershop on 2234 in Mo city arguing that the Rockets were not a championship team. I said they should have made the trade for Rondo or Melo. All the Barber's told me that will mess up the chemistry. Pat Beverly (da Gremlin) is a defensive stopper. Really, tell that to Damien Lillard bc he didn't get the memo. Oh, let's not forget Lamarcus "Score when I want to "Aldridge. Do we have anyone in Houston that can check him in 2014. 42 points, 20 rebounds really Houston. Mr. Dwight Howard, Superman-No Sir you looked terrible last night. But he had 27points, garbage, he did not look good at all and if we as Houston fan accept that performance then we also believe that the Texans are a QB away from the Super Bowl also.. NOT. The Rockets and Texans need superstars that want the ball in pressure moments. We have only 1 in Houston James Harden and JJ Watt and that's sad between two teams. Portland wins the series in 5 game ...

Wow, they did Karl Malone so wrong in that Foot Locker commercial with Damien Lillard and Chris Webber. LMAO!

19 Apr 2014 20:48

I like that Foot Locker commercial when Damien Lillard was taking about all the legends who haven't won the a ring football and basketball.

19 Apr 2014 20:46

I feel like that Damien Lillard commercial is a slight on Chris webber lol

16 Feb 2014 17:36

So glad to see superstar players, such as Terrance Ross, Damien Lillard, John Wall, and Harrison Barnes in the NBA Slam Dunk Contest last night. They've come such a long way from when no-name players like Michael Jordan, Dr. J, and Dominique Wilkins used to compete.

03 Feb 2014 03:59

In my fantasy basketball league I just traded.. Damien Lillard and Zach Randolph for Tony Parker and Blake Griffin. About a combo of 88 points each. Y'all thinking I came out a winner (however slightly) , or just broke even ?

25 Jan 2014 16:01

The fan voting is kind of annoying. It' just a popularity contest. How does Kobe Bryant even get into the all-star game this year, much less be a starter? Fans--if they actually thought about their choices--should have given that nod to Damien Lillard, Russel Westbrook, James Harden, Tony Parker, Chris Paul... there were so many more deserving players this year. And how does Roy Hibbert not get to start for the all-star game in the East? You have Carmelo Anthony starting? Good player but the Knicks are not playing well at all and that should be a part of the decision making process.

24 Jan 2014 03:53

Damien Lillard and Ty Lawson... Should be a good game! I look at Lawson like this is how I would look on the court in the NBA compared to all them giants! 😒

24 Jan 2014 01:44

Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant, Kevin Love, Stephen Curry and Blake Griffin are your West All-Star starters. Melo, King James, D-Wade, Paul George & Kyrie Irving are the East Starters. This KILLS me. NBA knows fans will vote for the home players or, causal fans vote in the most popular. Melo should be a reserve, replace him with Indy's Roy Hibbert. On the West, Kobe hasn't played barely all season. Replace him with James Harden, Dwight Howard, or Portland's Damien Lillard. Team play along with individual stats should be criteria for ASG, not fan bias. The voting system should be changed, 60 % coaches, 20 % fans and 20 % players. Let the guys who coach/play against the best in the world DECIDE who the best in the world are. I understand All-Star Weekend is about the fans, but it also should be a reward for the players as well.

20 Jan 2014 17:21

Wade, Lebron, and Harden are not clutch at all what are you smoking. How about Damien Lillard, Jeff Green, Joe Johnson?

You got LeBron James and the Dwayne Wade, you got Damien Lillard and Lamarcus Aldridge, you got Kyrie…

21 Dec 2013 20:35

So many top point guards in the nba because of Allen Iverson's influence I thing.Chris Paul, Tony Parker, Stephen Curry, Kyrie Irving, rajon rondo, Derrick Rose, Russell Westbrook, Ricky Rubio, Jeff Teague, Kimba Walker, Jose Calderón, Brandon Jennings, Ty lawson, Damien Lillard, Mike Conley, John Wall, Jrue Holiday, Deron Williams and even Phoenix got 2 Gronan Dragic and Eris Bristow how much is that?I personally would hate to be a point guard in the nba and having to guard these guys every night! What's your top 10 or 20 there's few starting jobs available for any of these collage kids comming out the draft this year and next.so lets hear from ya'll. I got plenty of time considering I got my inlaws staying with us and none of them speak English so am reaching out for help lol

18 Dec 2013 04:15

James Posey, Mike Bibby, Jamal Mashburn, and joining them as the only players to hit game winners back to back under 4 seconds... Damien Lillard... Impressive!

18 Dec 2013 02:29

And my Cleveland Cavaliers get robbed a game by Damien Lillard, ohhh that guy

25 Nov 2013 21:07

Today's NBA Tips/Analysis Portland Trailblazers - 7.5 - TAB - $1.90 The Portland Trailblazers are currently first in the Northwest division with a record of (12-2). The New York Knicks (3-9) are struggling in every aspect of the game from optimising production of forward Amar'e Stoudemire to injuries that are keeping out key players. PG Raymond Felton will be out again in this game and it is evident that NY is struggling without it's floor general. This was seen in the 98-89 loss at Washington on Saturday. Lead man Carmelo Anthony is currently shooting a career low 42% with struggling guard JR smith shooting 32.7% roughly 10% less then last year production. Look for one of the league's best scoring guards Damien Lillard to take over and cover the line of -7.5. Charlotte Bobcats - 3.5 - TAB - $1.90 The Boston Celtics travel to Charlotte to face off with the Charlotte Bobcats after starting the season with a (5-10) record. Charlotte are finally looking towards putting all injuries behind them with off-seaso ...

11 Aug 2013 02:29

Would you rather start a franchise with Kyrie, Deron Williams, Damien Lillard, or Jrue Holliday who would it be?

07 Aug 2013 20:19

Mo Williams is signing with the Trail Blazers? Didnt he want a starting position? What about Damien Lillard?

Who are you guys rooting for, Jrue Holiday because hes on the East (Go East!) or Damien Lillard because we all want to see all 76ers fail? I think I have to go Holiday. Don't want the East to fall down too far so that Novak and White's anticipated wins don't make a difference.-CantCopeWithCope

Mario Chalmers gets Exposed when he not playing older PGs. Damien Lillard

08 Feb 2013 18:45

I'm trying to figure out how they had a DRAFT and Shaq still ended up with Damien Lillard, Kyrie Irving, Klay Thompson and Chandler Parsons😑

30 Jan 2013 05:17

One thing I do hate about Damien Lillard is he's sometimes to calm.. like dude... Stop walking the ball up the court when there's 2 minutes left... Chris Paul or Russel Westbrook would of been settim up a play already.

11 Jan 2013 04:01

I like Damien Lillard game hes like Brandon Knight but better

11 Jan 2013 00:03

A young man who went to school here at BYU was drafted by the NBA last & plays for the Portland Trailblazers. His name is Damien Lillard. The Blazers play the Miami Heat at home tonite on ESPN at 8:30 & according to TV he may get to play tonite. Hope I'm correct. I don't know his background except that he went to school here but I wish him well in the NBA.

08 Jan 2013 06:24

Hmm Michael has me watching a live Portland Trailblazers game as a last ditch attempt to know all the payers before we get to the games.hmm I think it may be too late but lets see how I'm doing.Batum (forward), Aldridge (forward), JJ Hickson (centre), Price (guard) , Claver (forward from Spain), Damien Lillard (point guard), Wesley Matthews (guard) Joel Freeland (who started at 17y/o for UK in internationals playing centre). Portland coached by Terry Stotts. Missing Meyers Leonard today with injury.

05 Jan 2013 17:22

I would rather have Jim Harbarugh, Patrick Peterson and CP3 or even Damien Lillard

02 Jan 2013 00:17

Time for Damien Lillard to show Ray Felton what a real Portland point guard can do!

I know Steve Nash not gone guard Damien Lillard tonight, that should be illegal

29 Dec 2012 02:19

this is the point guard golden age.. Russ, CP3, k. Irving, Nash, D. Rose & Deron Williams. Damien lillard is up next

29 Dec 2012 02:19

Stay in front of Damien Lillard"What do the Lakers need to do to beat the Blazers tonight?"

29 Dec 2012 01:40

Damien Lillard watch out you got competition 4 Rookie of Year; if Al Horford of ATL Hawks has noticed has tooo!

29 Dec 2012 01:15

Tonight the Lakers (14-15) take on the Trail Blazers (14-13) in Staples Center. Pau Gasol (sore foot) is ready to go tonight. There isn't too many questions about the Lakers offense, but our defense is an entirely different story. Allowing 126 points to Denver on Thursday night. With Metta, Dwight, and Kobe in our lineup, i don't see why our defense is struggling so much. Hopefully Nash can stay with Damien Lillard tonight. And Howard needs to stay out of foul trouble. If that happens, we should have no problem cruising to a W tonight. Prediction: Lakers- 108 Trail Blazers- 96 GO LAKERS -LAL4LIFE

29 Dec 2012 00:54

Watching Kendall Marshall play for the makes me appreciate the selection of Damien Lillard so much more. Not close.

28 Dec 2012 23:01

If you're bored, you should definitely watch Damien Lillard highlights.

28 Dec 2012 22:01

I really want you all to know... "I called this Damien Lillard is going to be that guy" in like may... Dudes kept saying who did he play vs.

28 Dec 2012 21:03

Damien Lillard so beastly on this game

28 Dec 2012 17:08

Damien Lillard-Jrue Holiday PG match up should be interesting. Lillard for Rookie of the Year?

28 Dec 2012 06:19

I wonder how long Utah will hold onto the fact that Damien Lillard went to weber.

28 Dec 2012 03:24

Ill take Kyrie and Damien lillard over Westbrook too

28 Dec 2012 01:14

Just touched down in LA. What up SoCal?

27 Dec 2012 21:04

have you guys watched that kid Damien Lillard in Portland? Hes fun to watch! Reminds me of Isaiah Thomas

27 Dec 2012 20:41

not at all. He's been hurt half the year and hasn't been good when it matters. Damien lillard a better rookie so far

Damien Lillard close out the Rookie of the Year Chase tonight with Another Double-Double!

17 Dec 2012 16:31

Damien Lillard is a beast, definately deserves ROTY at this point. A buzzer beater as a rookie? Are you kidding me?

17 Dec 2012 04:21

The Hornets come back from 12 Down at start of the fourth but it wasn't enough as the Blazers win 95-92 after a big three from Damien Lillard in the Dying Seconds! -Freo

13 Dec 2012 22:26

You can just go head & give Damien Lillard the rookie of the yr award right now,while your at it hand Jrue Holiday his most improved player

13 Dec 2012 15:42

My predictions: Damien Lillard best rookie, Jamal Crawford best 6th man, and either Joakim Noah or Anderson Varejao for most improved player

09 Dec 2012 18:11

Damien Lillard became the second player to make a 3-pointer in each of his first 20 games. He tied Rudy Fernandez, who did it in 2008

09 Dec 2012 04:35

Talked to fast when I said Austin Rivers is going to be better than Damien Lillard

07 Dec 2012 17:38

Hot or Not? This week's hot or not players are: Danilo Gallinari, Austin Rivers, and Zach Randolph 1. Danilo Gallinari: Hot Gallinari has been in the starting position for a while now on the Denver Nuggets, and is doing a great job. At 6'10, his length is great for defense. He has scored double digits in his last few games, and grabbed a decent amount of boards. He's a great shooter who can drive the lane as well, making him a very versatile player. Gallinari averages 15 points and 6 boards, and he can come in handy for the Nuggets in the long run. 2. Austin Rivers: Not In his defense, adjusting to the NBA, especial after only 2 years in college, is not easy task. He's not having a great rookie year, and a lot of people think he should've stayed the full 4 years in college. He's averaging 6 points a game, which is nothing compared to the caliber of a Damien Lillard who's having 20 point nights for Portland. River's poor shooting isn't gunna win him a rookie of the year award, but being the son of Doc Rive ...

20 Nov 2012 06:26

Damien Lillard and Eric Bledsoe are going to be the two of the best points guard in the league.

Damien Lillard makes me want to punch myself for not drafting him in my fantasy league. Had him queued too!!!

11 Nov 2012 06:56

Damien Lillard is probably my favorite, most anticipate up rising star and I'm do excited to see him play more! ❤💙💜💚

10 Nov 2012 05:31

Just thinking out loud...wonder what Blazer life would have been like to have a healthy Brandon Roy, a healthy Greg Oden, LA, Batum, and Damien Lillard? Yikes...K now wake up! =)

09 Nov 2012 00:24

I hope Damien Lillard first fall to that injury curse that haunts Portland. DDR can play ball

01 Nov 2012 19:54

last nights Trailblazers game against the Lakers had the potential to be a "Trick" on the fans as our hopes for a decent season would get off to a rocky start against the new look Lakers with Dwight "Superman" Howard and Steve Nash joining the ranks of Koby and company. Instead what we got was a "Treat" as our new point guard Damien Lillard joined Isiah Thomas and the big "O" Oscar Robertson as the only players in NBA history to get over 20 points and 10 assists in their rookie debut game.I know it's just one game but I'm pretty excited!

01 Nov 2012 04:42

“Damien Lillard is the best rookie in the league ! Been said it & I won't stop saying it” right behind tony wroten jr I agree

30 Oct 2012 17:30

Will Barton, Damien Lillard If they have a full healthy season Damien Lillard will get rookie of the year, an Will Barton plays like a young Lebron James

But back to Damien Lillard. My goodness, very impressed in this game vs. the Lakers. Also Myers Leonard.

10 Oct 2012 23:11

I think my resentments regarding the Greg Oden/Kevin Durant fiasco, last season's money grubbing strike, and Brandon Roy's injury/retirement have subsided enough to let me watch some Trail Blazers basketball this season. I didn't watch any basketball last season for the first time in over 30 years, since the Blazers won it all in 76-77. Looks like they have some good young talent. Especially looking forward to checking out their new point guard, Damien Lillard (sure would be nice to have a PG capable of consistently hitting a mid-range jump shot). Of course, a coach who pays a bit of attention to detail would sure be a plus also. Preseason starts tonight against the Lakers, and it is televised.

01 Oct 2012 19:20

Damien Lillard is my really early favorite for ROY. Mainly because Austin Rivers & Eric Gordon going to try to keep it from Anthony Davis

27 Sep 2012 05:43

Head Coach Terry Stotts says that Damien Lillard will be the starting point guard for the Trail Blazers.

26 Sep 2012 00:31

cant wait for NBA to start, Damien Lillard rookie of the year

25 Sep 2012 21:14

Damien Lillard who used to play for Weber State, now on the Trailblazers, posted this pic of Dax that i took

24 Sep 2012 04:33

Hey Chris, in your opinion, should the Trail Blazers trade Aldridge, or is the addition of Damien Lillard enough to help

23 Sep 2012 13:26

Damien Lillard will be the Rookie of the year so far I've never been wrong

Damien Lillard is said to be one of the best rookie point guards to enter the NBA in 5 seasons and more explosive than Derrick Rose and rustle Westbrook during their rookie season and guess what he is on The Portland Trail Blazers! Yeah!

I'll tell you what Portland is looking good with Damien lillard and Meyers Leonard

16 Jul 2012 13:18

Mike Rice has compared Damien Lillard to Derrick Rose twice in the last five minutes.

16 Jul 2012 07:07

Former B-MEG Llamados import Denzel Bowles starred in his NBA Summer League debut, posting team-highs of 18 points and 12 rebounds, as his New Orleans Hornets fell to the Portland Trailblazers, 85-82, at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas. With top overall pick Anthony Davis called up to Team USA, Bowles made the most of his opportunity, coming off the bench to score 18 on an impressive 8-for-12 shooting clip in just 19 minutes of play. Hornets teammate Austin Rivers, the 10th overall pick in the 2012 NBA Draft, finished with 14 points, two assists and three steals in 32 minutes. Portland was led by 6th pick Damien Lillard, who scored a game-high 25 points for the winning team. The Hornets face the Milwuakee Bucks in their next game.

16 Jul 2012 05:01

but Damien Lillard and Myers Leonard went ham. Damien had 24 pts and Myers had 14 and 11
